You're WRONG About the Starter Pokemon in Legends Z-A

Don't wanna miss Pokemon Legends Z-A news? YOU SHOULD SUBSCRIBE‼

As a French, hearing "i suppose French people play football too" when France won one of the last football World cup (being the second one we win), I feel kinda attacked

Scorbunny could become a reference to Napoleon being attacked by a horde of hungry rabbits

The thing about Empoleon already being Napoleon is you have to remember they already did this in Legends Arceus. Arcanine and Zoroark were both already based on very japanese things and yet they gave them regional forms that were just based on... The things they were already based on. So it's not impossible that they'd do the same for Empoleon. We also got to keep in mind that game freak don't really abide by fan made patterns and we have no idea if they'll give the starters regional forms like in the last game, mega evolutions, both, or even make them convergent mons. Also the Fire/Ghost Emboar you brought up would be REALLY funny because it'd make Emboar both the third Fire/Fighting type starter in a row AND the third Fire/Ghost type starter in a row. Has anyone else noticed we've almost gone three for three again?

If we get POPPLIO imma cry tears of joy 😭😭💞

You convinced me with Popplio. Some people were theorizing Torchic because the Rooster is the national bird of France... but the fact it has a mega makes me doubt it. Lop eared rabbits were first bred in France, so maybe a Fire and Fairy type Cinderace could work?

Empoleon could get the hat that Napoleon wears lol.

Snivy, Scorbunny and Popplio are the exact three I'm hoping to be the trio for this game!

For me personally i want Snivy, Totodile, Chimchar. I just feel those starter's deserve something new to play with like a regional form or a Mega. Like i want Serperior to have something else going for it other than contrary for example.

Rooting for Snivy, Piplup & Scorbunny

1:07 I can see an empoleon mega lean more into the Poseidon inspiration rather than napoleon

9:57 ironically in the anime oshawott was the funny one and tepig was the serious one

Being a big Alolan fan I hope we get popplio

I feel like we will have water/ghost spy Sobble form alongside fire/fairy Chimchar and grass/dark Snivy.

I LOVE popplio and hope ur right lol I think Empoleon is a more on the nose reference to France so it makes sense but Primarina really deserves more love

If they are going to give regional variants to the starters like in Legends Arceus it could create new possibilities for the starter choices

Don't forget that in Legends Arceus, the starters may or may not have been picked based on where Cynthia has been: Alola (Battle Tree) for Rowlet, Johto (Sinjoh Ruins) for Cyndaquil, and Unova (Undella Town) for Oshawott. Have we seen a character introduced in Kalos, be in 3 different regions? If so then perhaps they might continue this unspecified trend.

Another option is that Legends Z-A will have the original Kalos starters instead of a new trio. The reasoning being that, if they want to give the starers megas then itd be weird to do it with a mismatched trio since then that pokemon would be unbalanced in its original trio. And i know Charizard is already like this, have an extra mega over Blastoise and Venusaur, but Charizard is Charizard thats just how it is. Itd feel weird with any other pokemon lol. Of course theres always the possibility that they're not giving the starters megas, which would be lame, but it does solve that problem. But also come on, the kalos starters should have gotten megas anyway ages ago

Cinderace could fit pretty well into france because its a very soccer loving country actually make it do a Zidane headbutt

I didn't think any Water starter other than Piplup could be a viable candidate. But now, you've actually convinced me it could be Poplio.
